Summary
In which Armand wasn't as good at erasing all evidence of his relationship with Daniel as he thought he was...
-------
"But my favorite moment," Thompson said, raising his glass, "was back in '78. We're in the middle of the layout for the December issue, everyone's stressed, deadline breathing down our necks. And in walks this Indian guy, no shoes, British accent thick as molasses, striding in like he owned the place, carrying a blender of all things."
Daniel chuckled, having heard this story at least a dozen times over the years. He had no actual memory of the event, but it had become such a staple of newsroom lore that he'd even considered including it in his memoir.
"He marches straight up to Daniel's desk," Thompson continued, "perfectly poised, like walking barefoot into a newsroom with kitchen appliances was the most natural thing in the world, and says 'What is this?'" The professor affected a posh British accent that made the younger faculty members snicker.
"And Daniel, cool as ice, doesn't even look up from his typewriter. Just says, 'That's a blender, man.'"

Summary
"I know what a breakup looks like," Daniel says. "The better question is, why are you coming to me about it? I'm the one who broke up your little sham."
"This is what humans do, don't they?" Armand asks, letting his voice drop. "Crashing on their friends' couches when there's a blip in their romances?"
"Except we're not friends. We're actually very much not friends." Daniel shrugs, as if it's all the same to him. "And I can't imagine the great vampire Armand deigning himself to sleep on my fucked-up sofa. That thing's been here since the nineties."
"Well," Armand only says. "I saw you have a guest bedroom."

Summary
Daniel's getting older, but not any better at coping. Armand hasn't gotten any older in centuries. For nearly a decade now, Daniel's been able to exist mostly detached from mortal life. That isn't true anymore.
